Lesson goal: Asking questions: true or false

Although computers are good at dealing with all kinds of information, two very important values are the values true and false.
These are the values returned by a computer when you ask it a question about information it is processing.

What types of questions can you ask it? How about questions that involve asking how two numbers compare. For example, is this
question 3 < 10 true or false? What about 56 >= 56? 9 == 9?

For this lesson, you'll use the
comparison operators, such as > (greater than) < (less than), <= (less than or equal), and/or
>= (greater than or equal). There is also == which means "check if equal." The single = sign is not used
for comparison, since it's used for assigning values to variables, as shown in this lesson.

In math, these operators are written as $$, $\le$, $\ge$, and $==$. These are all called "comparison operators," since
they compare numbers. The results of such comparisons is either true or false. Let's see how they work.
